Can we get an update?

So, what's happening now

I decided that I was curious about this. But it's been two months now and the issue was banished back off the news cycle after nobody has been apprehended immediately.

Maybe it is too much for me to ask that once in a while people follow a case or a murder or even a mere arrest with the idea of uncovering what happened and why. This was a case where "we" collectively ascribed the why and what happened parts without necessary and legal evidentiary support. And seem now more than happy to move on and ignore it in the public conscience as a result as though the issue was resolved to the satisfaction of a greater social justice.

So you think maybe they're now focusing on the suicide/insurance fraud angle because shitty police work has failed to find external leads? I don't know what to think, but it's no less disturbing as a half (or more) forgotten story.

I'm pretty sure the thinking now is not that this was some sort of suicide insurance scam. But there isn't much evidence or proof (at least visible to the public) to suggest who else did it or for what he was killed.

Which means it's a forgotten issue.

Terrible. Would be an awfully, awfully bizarre way to commit suicide. Somebody knows something, so hopefully when they let it slip it won't go unheard/unreported.

Guess that answers my question.
